Funny, I thought it was overly generous to libertarians.
Most libertarians I know are social conservatives - indeed most are orthodox Catholics.
Really? I am well aware that most, if not all, devout Catholics are social conservatives; but I can't see how they can be libertarian. It is IMPOSSIBLE to be a devout Catholic or a social conservative and be libertarian on issues such as abortion and homosexuality.
They understand one key point - abortion, gay marriage, drug use, are not causes, they are symptoms. Debt, fiat money and activist progressive government are the causes of harmful changes to society and to how people behave. Fix those first and the social problems will fix themselves.
Oh yes, the always popular libertarian mantra of "deal with our agenda and we won't need to worry about yours."
The REALITY is that the sexual revolution, homosexual agenda, abortion, drug abuse and other social issues started BEFORE America went off the gold standard (despite what the libertarians would have us believe, there has ALWAYS been a Federal debt). Abortion goes back to the eugenics movement that started in the late 19th century. Drug abuse has been around in one form or another for all of human history. Acceptance of sexual promiscuity and the "normalization" of homosexuality began with the Kinsey Report of 1948.
“It is IMPOSSIBLE to be a devout Catholic or a social conservative and be libertarian on issues such as abortion and homosexuality.”
Well, one doesn’t need to be liberal on issues like abortion and homosexuality in order to be a libertarian. People who like to bash libertarians want to draw that narrow definition, and then force all libertarians into that box, but that isn’t reality.
